ergoCub

Model: ergocub

ergoCub is IIT’s ergonomics-focused humanoid robot developed with INAIL for physical collaboration tasks in industrial and healthcare settings. Built as an evolution of iCub, ergoCub is designed to reduce workers’ biomechanical risk during lifting by combining humanoid mobility, force-aware interaction, and AI-based planning. IIT reports a human-scale body (1.5 m, 55.7 kg), an approximate 10 kg collaborative load capability, Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, and AI components for collaborative lifting, load transport, warehouse navigation, worker-intention recognition, and object localization/manipulation.
